Description

This is a near fine softcover copy with almost no wear. Completely clean inside and out. Text in RUSSIAN. This catalog was prepared to accompany the exhibition at the Louvre in Paris in 1995 and at the Hermitage Museum in Moscow in 1997. Charles- Louis Clerisseau (1721-1820) was a French architectural draughtsman, antiquary and artist. He had a role in the genesis of neoclassical architecture during the second half of the 18th century. Catherine the Great was a patron of ClÈrisseau. The drawings and studies exhibited at the Hermitage depict ruins in Italy, architectural fantasies, and arabesque interior designs. The largest cache of ClÈrisseau drawings by far is in the collection at the State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg. Bibliography. Illustrated with 64 black & white figures, 78 color and b/w plates.11" high X 9" wide, 191 pages. This book will be securely packed and shipped with tracking.
